Hope this gets a reply here. My 2005 S60 2.5 awd seems to have the rear diff always engaged. I first noticed it when attempting a tight u-turn. One rear tire skidded along like a 4wd truck that was bound up on dry pavement. We put it up on the lift and with the transmission in neutral we turned both...

Thought this would be an easy one. The clock stopped working on my 2000 C70 coupe. After discovering that the clock was not a removable piece like the 850 trip computer, I figured I would have to swap the whole cluster. I found a cluster with similar miles from a 99 S70 at the local pick and pull. M...

The C70s came pre-wired for the 6 cd changer from the factory. The cable runs to the trunk near the amp and antenna. There is also a power plug there. That said, I was unable to find a bracket to mount the changer close enough to those factory connections. I ended up extending the power wires and ru...

I used the Infinity reference series speakers that Lee has pictured in his awesome article. I filled the car with them and also added a factory amp under the dash and wow!

I have found that if I pull the release handle with my right hand and push down on the corner of the hood with my left at the same time the hood opens. Saves a little back and forth running.

I went to work one morning and the clock was working. When I left at 4 pm the clock display was stuck at 3:20. I can change the time with the buttons to the left but the clock still won't start. All other functions of the display work using the INFO dial switch. I learned at the local pick & pul...

On mine the switch can be removed from the door panel and unplugged from the wiring harness. That harness plug can be inserted into one of the two female receptacles on a 4 door switch. That will make 2 of the 4 switches operational for testing. That 4 door switch will fit in the door panel hole tha...

A 4 position switch from an S/V 70 will fit in the hole and accept the wiring plug from the C70. Only the 2 front window switches will work, but that could be an easier piece to find to do the test.

It's a tiny spring that appears almost impossible to fix. I just leave a cartridge in it.

It also does that when you enter the wrong code. I tried it to see what happened. And yes, I know a short will cause a fuse to blow. I was wondering what might go bad from a dead battery. Even when the fuse doesn't pop the radio takes the correct code, does what sounds like its self test, and then j...
